yes they are
Saitek was one of the only computer manufacturers that never built their
computers to withstand cat piss or poop

i have a cat as well
to safeguard all of my computers i have force fed my cat various cat treats and
other high caloric food over the years so leaping and jumping are now a thing of
the past for her

she cannot leap more then perhaps 1-2 feet in the air
so any computer i set up on my desk(about 3 feet high)is out of attack range

one note of caution..at night be sure to move the chair away from the desk
one time she managed to make it to the chair and from there..well..lets just say
i could no longer use that computer..i did trade it though..

Best
Steve
